AN EASY Way 70 MAKE MONEY,

According to eports from Wash
ington, 100000, in round mum.
bers, of Trade Dollars have been
redeemed. These Dollars contain
420 grains silver, 900 fine; and for
them the Government gives Stand
ard Dollars containing only Al2@
grains of the same finencss, and
therefore makes a grains on every
exchange. But the Standard Dollars
are legal tenders for all amounts,
and are therefore worth par, while
the Trade Dollars are merely bullion
and will fetch in the market at the
present prices no more than II cents.
There is an apparent gain to the
Trade Dollar operr{ors of twenty
three per cent. But Silver was not
as low as It's now when they secured
possession of these coins two years
ago. They were gathered on an
average discount of about 20 per
cent. The profit on $500, 900
therefore has been Sl,300,000 for
those engaged in the deal, mostly
residents of Philadelphia. The par
ties who lost the money which they
have made are the people to whom
these Trade Dollars had been paid
at par. Part of these same Sc, 500,-
600 had previously been worked off
on the people of this city and
bought back at u discount of about
10 per cent, for silver at that date
was higher than it is now. The Act
for the redemption of these coins
was, in sense, the most discredit-
able that ever passed the American
Congress. And this is said on the
assumption that it was ignorance
rather than connivancc that lay at
the bottom of the transaction. - 5.

Thanksgiving at the TIL eatre.
Manager Steel has arranged two par
ticularly good attractions for Thanksgiv-
ing day at Harper's theatre. He has
succeeded in securing the Dunlap Opera
company of forty people for these events
Two operas are to be presented-"The
Black Hussar" at night, and Indians"
for afternoon matinee. The Dunlap
Opera company is the only musical Or
gsnization which has authority to present
the McCaull operas, and is virtually that
celebrated company. For years the Nc,
Caull Opera company has been noted for
the excellence of its performances and
the high standard of operas produced, as
well as the unusual enterprise in present
ing all the novelties of the European
lyric stage in an incredibly short space of
time after their production abroad. This
has caused the name of McCaull, in con>
| nection with operas. to be known through.
, out the land, and has been guarantee
| of the worthiness of the performance to
be given. During all these years Mr.
| George Dunlap was the partner and close
business associate of Col. McCaull, inter-
ested and participating in every plan of
| that well known manager. This season
Col. McCaull decided to limit his opera
tions to but four of the principal cities,
viz: New York, Philadelphia, Boston
and Chicago. This caused an amicable
difference between the partners, which
resulted in a division of the forces be-
fore marshalled in the two McCaull com
panies, an apportioning Of territory and
the birth of the Dunlap Opera company.
| Indiana" is the latest successful opera
from the pen of Edward Audran, the
composer OF "Olivette" and "Mascotte, j
and is to be counted among the best Of
his works. 1t was first produced in Lon
don, England, in October. 1885, and in
the following Demember it was presented
by Colonel McCsull at the Philadelphia
opera pouse and at Waliack's theatre,
New York, meeting in each city with in.
Simultaneous success, both on account OF
the music, which is bright and pretty,
and at the same time the story is inter
esting, cleverly told and possessing 6
strong comedy interest that runs through
out the opera and keeps the interest Of
the auditors constantly engaged.

In the circuit court Saturday afternoon
Judge Smith overruled a motion for a
new trial in the Killing divorce case.
The attorneys for the plaintiff had pre-
viously asked the court to rule MIR. Kill
ing to pay them each $500 addition
al to the s125 previously granted; Judge
Smith, allowed for record and evil
dence, 1915; attorneys fees for trial,
$500; attorneys fees for appellate court,
$500; printing abstract $75, and printing
briefs $50-making q total of $1,000.
He continued the alimony of $50
month The Judge permits appeal to the
appellate court.
Judge Smith remarked that the jury had
passed upon the facts in the case and had
found against the complainant, and that
he felt bound by the verdict. Had he
been trying the case as chancellor he
might have found different. This remark
of the court led The attorney of Mrs
Killing to assume that the Judge would
have rendered a verdict for the client,
and in the further argument Of the mo-
ton for new trial, the judge replied to
q remark of the counsel, that he did no,
wish to be understood as saying that he
would have rendered verdict for her
The court further remarked that wher
the jury retired to consider their verdict
in his own mind he was prepared tc
receive q verdict either way, that hi
judgment ON the facts was so evenly bal
anced that verdict for the complsinsn
would not have surprised him, yet hi
could see how the jury could find as the.
did; that he could not say that the yer
dict was manifestly against the evidence
that to grant q new trial be must be 81
satisfied, which was not the case, AM
hence he overruled the motion.
